In response to last year’s extremely active lightning season that damaged many tower-lighting controllers, FAA obstruction light OEM and distributor Slatercom now offers the LB series surge protection system. The system is provided in a 12-inch-by-10-inch polycarbonate enclosure and includes 40-kiloampere surge devices to effectively absorb transient high-energy pulses that may be conducted from tower-mounted light fixtures or from near lightning strikes. Full power-line protection as well as lighting fixture wiring is routed through the LB protection system prior to entering the lighting controller, thus absorbing the majority of surge energy. Systems are custom-manufactured for use with any new or existing lighting systems. www.slatercom.com
